Customer Story: The Coller School of Business
Digital Transformation of Assessment with Tomax
About The Coller School of Business
Established in 1966, the Coller School of Business has over 35,000 alumni, 60 full-time faculty, and 200 adjunct lecturers from the highest echelons of industry, giving it the largest alumni network in the country. Since 2008, the global ranking agency Eduniversal has repeatedly awarded the School its highest rating, the coveted "5 Palmes of Excellence," in recognition of its "strong global influence." The 5-Palme rating is awarded to just 100 schools worldwide, including Harvard Business School, London Business School, and INSEAD.
Secure, Remote Use of Excel
Traditional methods of evaluation at the Coller School of Business relied heavily on manual grading, which proved to be time-consuming, error-prone, and lacking the flexibility to truly gauge students' understanding. Additionally, the absence of a tool like Excel restricted students in accounting and economics from applying their knowledge in practical, real-world scenarios, depriving them of a valuable learning opportunity. These limitations created a gap between educational objectives and the means to achieve them, necessitating a transformative solution to overcome these obstacles.
TomaEtest
TomaEtest seamlessly integrated with the School's existing systems and allowed it to create assessments that were engaging, interactive, and tailored to the unique needs of its students. But what truly set it apart was its compatibility with Excel, a tool most of the students were already familiar with.
With the new software, the School was able to design assessments that require the use of Excel, allowing students to apply their knowledge in practical, real-world scenarios, using their own laptops and their own version of Excel. This not only enhanced their understanding of the subject matter, but also improved their assessment experience.
The software provided a user-friendly interface that made it easy for both instructors and students to navigate. It allowed the School to automate grading, reducing the time spent on manual grading tasks and ensuring more accurate results. This freed up valuable time to provide personalised feedback and guidance to students, fostering a deeper connection and improving their overall learning experience.
Moreover, the software offered insightful analytics and reporting features that allowed the School to track individual students' progress and identify areas where additional support was needed. This data-driven approach enabled it to tailor teaching methods and interventions, ensuring that no student was left behind.
“The exceptional nature of Tomax's solutions enabled us, for the first time, to administer exams using Excel. An extraordinary enhancement that greatly elevated the overall assessment experience for our students. I am grateful we partnered with Tomax.”
The Results
The team at the Coller School of Business said that the implementation of TomaEtest was a breath of fresh air for the institution and its students. It transformed the way they conduct assessments, empowering students to excel in practical applications, while elevating teaching methods.
